Feels like the Democrats should maybe put up a website showing all of the Trump Flight Cancellations?
United starting to post its Trump Flight Cancelations for Friday and the #CursedRoute is taking a 50% hit.
“Your flight is canceled due to FAA-mandated airspace restrictions during the government shutdown.“

Selfishly, I am very pleased the pair of terfs running for Northshore School Board seats, one of whom is a January 6th rioter, both lost by like 40%. They did worse than the district 1 candidate who pulled out of the race. I look forward to the day all their campaign signs are disposed of.

disappointed at the loss turnout of Central Park voters
Zohran Mamdani wins!
He ran on an unabashedly pro-transgender platform, stood up for the most vulnerable, as so many have pushed for the Democratic Party to abandon trans people in order to win.
Major win for trans New Yorkers - he has vowed for intense resistance to anti-trans Trump policies.
